PDFCreator is a kind of virtual printer that converts pretty much any file to PDF, as well as other formats including JPG, PNG, and TIF. It works quickly and effectively, and is available in several languages, making it a universal option.

Once you’ve got the program up and running, you can quickly change metadata and file names, and tweak the document size in the settings. If you decide to go ahead and install PDF Architect as well, you’ll be able to use it to open up the files, combine different documents, and delete the pages you don’t need.

Don’t forget to activate the autosave mode for any file you convert to be instantly saved to a designated folder without you having to do a thing. Clever PDFCreator.

Security and digital signatures

PDFCreator helps keep your docs safe and sound by protecting them from unauthorized access and changes. You can restrict access to your PDFs, require a password to open the document or restrict printing and modifying your document with 128 bit AES encryption.

You can also quickly put your mark on the dotted line by using digital signatures to save time and avoid having to print and re-scan a document.

PDFCreator has all the instructions and FAQs you need to help guide you through.
